What does XP stand for?

eXPerience

The PR department stikes again.

Depending on your personal view of Microsoft, you can follow the PR line of eXPeriance.

Or go with the radical view of eXtra Proffits.

Thanks for these clarifications. I always thought XP to stand for eXtra Problems, noting the first week using XP that at least 20 times it wanted to send error reports to MS. I must admit, currently I get these messages only a few times a week.

eXPerience the problems

eXPerience the loss of solutions

eXPerience that stupid pretty desktop that makes you want to puke

See what I mean, it makes sense, doesnt it?

I spoke with a most professional lady, ("Grace"), at Microsoft Canada's Customer Relations and she clarified that XP does NOT mean Extra Profit… but instead means “Experience”.

Um, I always thought it stood for "Xtra Pretty." ;-)
